If you thought 2017 was a great year for vegans, then be prepared for an even better 2018.

Even if there are no more releases this year – which there will be, we're sure – vegans in the UK can sign off 2018 as happy humans with the news that a vegan Cornetto is coming. And just in time for summer!

The vegan ice creams will be launching into UK Sainsbury's stores from February and will be made from soy, topped with nuts and chocolate and stuffed into a gluten-free cone. Yummy.

Great news. I am vegetarian and wanting to go vegan, but its not easy as there is so little at the moment for vegans. I will buy these when they come out. Lets just hope they do not charge a lot more as often they charge more for vegan stuff.
